training later, and Sal Cupertine is gone, disappeared into the

cemetery, Rabbi Cohen feels his wicked past slipping away from him,
surprising even himself as he spouts quotes from the Torah or the
Old Testament. Yet, as it turns out, the Mafia isn't quite done
with him yet. Soon the new cemetery is being used as both a money
and body-laundering scheme for the Chicago family. And that rogue
FBI agent on his trail, seeking vengeance for the murder of his
three fellow agents, isn't going to let Sal fade so easily into the
